REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[st] DECEMBER 2022

The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of the Company for the period 1st January to 31st December 2022.

Constitution and Governance

The Church was registered as a Private Limited Company, limited by guarantee on 4[th] June 2010 - company number 7273639 - and subsequently with the Charity Commission - charity number 1137502.

The Company is established under a Memorandum of Association which sets out its objects and powers. It is governed under its Articles of Association.

The Trustees have dual roles, one being Trustees, the other being as Directors of the Company for the purpose of company law.

The Trustees during the period were:

Kathryn McKerrell (Chair) Robin Oakes Claire Nicell Richard Hudson John Sweetnam – (Company Secretary) Gabriele Henderson

These Trustees bring a unique set of skills to the company’s business. They include an accountant, a nurse, two engineers, a learning mentor and a teacher. Each has significant professional skills and recognises the importance of personal training, including the need to attend appropriate training courses in order to keep up to date with developments in Trustee and Director responsibilities. They are all committed to the aims and objectives of the Charity.

The Church’s Memorandum of Association recognises the role of Spiritual Leadership in the spiritual governance of the Church. Spiritual Leadership during the period of these accounts was Robin Oakes and Brian Boggis (the Church leaders). This Report therefore is concerned with the proper management and administration of the charity in accordance with the Articles and in furtherance of the Objects.

The Trustees have purchased Trustee indemnity insurance.

Aims and Objectives for the Public Benefit

This statement is required by the Charities Act 2006. In preparing these comments we have had regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance (Reg 40 (2) (c) (ii))

The Church Leaders and Trustees are aware of the Commission’s guidance on public benefit and in particular the specific guidance on charities for the advancement of religion.

No charge is made for any regular Church activities and they are open to the general public.

The Vision of the Church

The vision God has given us is to equip the Church to serve God and reach our community.

The Church’s Mission Statement

We aim to be a place:

The following points highlight some of the benefits provided by the Church when not subject to Covid restrictions. Covid restrictions were lifted in the UK on 24 February 2022 so part of this year was subject to restrictions with the remainder transitioning back to the new normal:

SOUTH HILL CHURCH (HEMEL HEMPSTEAD)

(A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[st] DECEMBER 2022

The Church also works very closely with South Hill Centre, a separate charity originally set up by the Church to offer pre-school education facilities, but which now also runs the building in which the Church meets and provides a comprehensive range of community activities. The Centre’s activities include a wide range of activities supporting families, activities for the elderly, careers and job seeking advice and makes available facilities for many local charities and community groups to use. Church members are actively encouraged to support the Centre both financially and as volunteers at its activities. More information can be found at www.southhillcentre.co.uk

Main Objectives for 2022

As the pandemic has continued to affect the Church’s activities into 2022, many of the objectives have not been achieved as originally envisaged as set out in the table below :

Activities

Our activities gradually returned to normal during 2022 and we held the following activities in the Church building:

Also during the week Prayer and Family Care groups met in person and/or on-line.

Other activities are organised and run by volunteers from amongst church people but under the auspices of South Hill Centre, the charity which supports the Church’s community activity:

All this activity can only be maintained because approximately 50 people from the church volunteer to help lead them. This involves significant preparation and clearing up. In addition, many of these same people support other activities in the Centre giving freely of their time and resources. The Church Leaders and Trustees really appreciate all the resources given so willingly to help achieve the vision God has given the church.

Working together with other Churches in Hemel

The Church is a member of Churches Together in Hemel Hempstead.

The Church is regularly represented at the monthly Pray Hemel and gives support to DENS (working with the homeless) and the Dacorum Foodbank, where it is now a distribution centre. The Church also supports Youth across Hemel, the Christian secondary schools work. The Church has for many years supported Andrew Masters and Discovery which works in a large number of junior schools throughout Hemel.

Supporting those in our Church family called to serve in the UK and throughout the world

Ten full time workers and outreach opportunities, as listed in the attached accounts, both overseas and in the UK, were supported via the Missionary Fund. These included Ric and Tulin Munro working in Turkey, Tim and Miranda Heathcote in Spain, Dean and Ruth Such in Bolivia, Youth across Hemel’s

work amongst secondary schools and Bibles for Children who distribute Bibles to primary school children in Hemel Hempstead.

Assisting fellowships overseas to develop, particularly in South Africa

South Hill Church has for many years had an ongoing relationship with Pastor Monde and his church at Mgezwa, near Lusikisiki.

Main Objectives for 2023

The main objectives for 2023 are to:

Financial Review

The accounts reflect 12 months activity.

The accounts have been prepared using the FRS102.

Voluntary donations of £86,245 were received in the period, an increase of £12,797 from the previous year. A substantial amount of the donations come from monthly standing orders set up by members of the church, with the rest coming in our weekly offerings on Sunday mornings. The benefits of Gift Aid are explained to donors and a significant majority meet the Gift Aid criteria, so that £21,058 is included in the total for Gift Aid reclaims.

During the period the Company spent £81,763 on charitable activities, an increase of £11,111 from the previous year.

SOUTH HILL CHURCH (HEMEL HEMPSTEAD)

(A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31[st] DECEMBER 2022

An amount of £3,916 was given to mission groups and individuals in the UK and £3,780 was paid out to various projects in South Africa, some of which were supporting individuals through training and education to benefit their local communities and churches. This compares to £6,217 in the previous year. The reduction is associated with reconciliating previous over-allocations to the Africa General Fund rather than representing any significant reduction in support. These gifts are detailed in Note 5.

We are aware of the best practice requirements relating to finance given to overseas charities and have appropriate controls in place to verify that money donated is being spent on charitable activities. These include controls over the release of funds from the UK and regular visits by members of the Church to verify that money has been spent on the projects to which it was designated.

Reserves Policy and Going Concern

The financial position of the Church remains satisfactory, with £33,165 of unrestricted funds in the bank (£19,428 at the end of the previous year) and restricted funds of £4,615 (£6,993 end of previous year). With expenses running at some £81,763 in calendar year 2022 (an average of £6,814 per month), best practice would require us to have 3 months expenditure in the bank (£20,442) to ensure we have sufficient to meet an unexpected down-turn in giving or an unexpected expense. With a year end balance of over £33,000, the Trustees are satisfied that the charity is carrying sufficient reserves. The Trustees will seek to maintain a ratio of at least 3x monthly expenditure during 2023.

The restricted funds of £4,615 represent gifts from individuals and earmarked church funding made to support the various people and activities as listed in Note 5.

There is regular communication with the people and activities, for which funds are being held, and funding needs are identified, and funds transferred as necessary.

Risk Management

The Trustees are aware of the need to properly manage and mitigate the risks faced by the company. They work closely with the Directors of South Hill Centre to ensure a comprehensive approach is adopted to the major strategic, business, and operational risks faced by the Companies and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to minimise those risks. They also regularly consider emerging risks which might affect the company.

A risk register is in place, and comprehensive child protection, equality and diversity, health and safety and data protection policies have been adopted. Specific training is given where appropriate to volunteers and employees to help mitigate risks. A Designated Person for safeguarding has been appointed during 2022.

Related parties

The Company has no related parties but has worked closely with South Hill Centre and other agencies in fulfilling its aims and objectives.

Small Companies Provisions

The report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of part vii of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies
